Film Friday: 10 Best Picture nominees that should have won from 'The Grapes of Wrath' to 'Raging Bull'

7. The Treasure of the Sierra Madre - 1948, directed by John Huston (lost to Hamlet)

As surprisingly entertaining as Laurence Olivier's Hamlet is, it can't touch The Treasure of the Sierra Madre. Featuring the best performance Humphrey Bogart ever gave, this is John Huston's masterpiece. The movie is one of only a few to win all of the awards it was up for except Best Picture. Huston won Best Director and Best Screenplay and he is the only person to direct his father to an Oscar win. Walter Huston won Best Supporting Actress.

The real crime was that Bogart wasn't even nominated, though. I can live with Hamlet winning and even with Olivier winning Best Actor, but Bogart was robbed.
